Graphene sheets for DIY?
I can get it from graphene-supermarket.com (the link won't take) for $125 for a 4"x8" sheet but figuring out the rest is above my pay grade. :-)All the best,Nonoise 
Graphene sheets for DIY?
Probably. (doh!) The thought of saving some money always trounces reason. :-)All the best,Nonoise

why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
maplegrovemusic, was that for me?If so, tell me where I've closed the door and just when I said that no one else's opinion matters. In my last post I'm asking for input.All the best,Nonoise 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
If it were to be decided what is expensive, then we'd all hear crickets. I mentioned what my cost considerations were and the cables involved so maybe others can chime in with theirs? Mine work out to be <10% of system costs and I couldn't be h... 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
...the best cable is the cable that changes the signal the least.I couldn't agree more. So it goes to say that despite protests to the contrary, all cables are not made the same and there are makes that get it right or better than most and it's al... 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
I think no one here can disagree with your first point.As for the second, substitute low and mid priced cables with expensive and the same can be said. It's kind of a straw man argument.As for the placebo effect, please. Once we have our systems o...

When it comes to taste, we humans use a fraction of our genes available and it's NEVER the same ones used from one person to the next, nor the amount. That accounts for why some have phenomenal tasting abilities and some, like me, don't. There's a...

Blind A/B testing has been shot full of holes so many times the concept could sell in the dairy section.

Ah, the good old days. Back when everyone's dad had some semblance of a tool collection in his garage. Now they're just used for storage. Cars needed constant attention and tuning. TVs needed tubes replaced. Washers and dryers needed belts replace... 
CD/SACD Player. I know there are many threads but I still would like help.
The Exogal Comet is a well reviewed DAC so one less expensive way to go is to try various cabling between your CDP and DAC. If you're still not satisfied, try a different transport as well. There are some dedicated ones out there leaving it all to... 
Speaker Cable trial
I still have a pair of Clear Day single run speaker cables and liked them a lot with an older set up. How they interact with your particular amp and speaker is the only way to determine if they're right for you.With my new system, they just don't ... 
Speaker Cable trial
I take it from your heading that you need to know if Clear Day cables has a trial offer? They do. Just ask and Paul will send you out a pair or two that are already broken in so you can hear and decide for yourself.All the best,Nonoise 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
Precisely. There are makes that don't tout their cables as much as most. They simply know from experience and feedback that what they do works. They use beta testers. With those makes it's a slow process and it boils down to evolutionary improveme... 
why do people feel the need to buy expensive cable
Too many here are stating things definitively so as to preclude any debate without the first hand experience to back it up. I used to be in the camp that simpler was the better way to go and as long as one used a high enough purity with the conduc...
